Initial step for ethereum/EIPs#59

happy to merge this, but i think it needs to happen only following an EIP ratifying the alteration in nomenclature.

Solidity now has an alias named keccak256(). Does that help?

Shouldn't it be named KECCAK256 instead?

I don't mind either way. What would you prefer @gavofyork ?

i think "KECCAK" is fine as long as it's stated as the 256-bit variant somewhere at the beginning. (technically we used SHA3-256, but we always drop the "-256" suffix)
